Every time my daughter loses a game she gets very upset and cannot accept that she has lost. I really want to try and teach her that you can’t always win but I don’t know what the best way to do this would be?

Answer:

In my experience as a childcare worker I have found that the best approach would be to first explain how nobody likes to lose and that nobody wins games all the time. I suggest you let her follow your example and play a game where you lose and then show her how to respond to the situation, for example, congratulate the other person and shake their hand. Children learn most by watching their parents and so can you play a vital role in teaching her the correct behaviour. When she loses a game, you could remind her of a time when she won and tell her how this time it is the other person’s turn to win. When she behaves more appropriately, for example shaking hands with the winner, make sure you praise her for her good behaviour.
